oh what a week it has been

this week has to qualify as one of the worst weeks i have ever experienced: 1) every single client who i had an appointment with has cancelled due to illness, 2) i felt sick almost all day yesterday and ended up going home early, 3) about a mile from the house this morning (on my way to work) i had a tire blow out, thus it cost me $190 for a new tire plus i did not get here until after 10am! the weekend just cannot get here soon enough.

ok, just after noon my printer/scanner/fax machine died. thank god i always carry the extended warranty through office max. the machine i had was 1 1/2 years old, i got a full refund for it and the extended warranty, got a bigger, better machine and it cost me less that $100. yahoo something almost right in my week!

did i say something right? after installing the new hp software, i was not able to scan anything to my computer. after spending 2 hours on the phone with hp while uninstalling and re-installing their software 4 times i was finally advised that "the cd must not be good". it is 7pm and i am installing the software directly from their web site....only 35 minutes left to go. this had better work.

FOOTNOTE (fri 11/30/07): i finally left the office at 7:45 last night. almost exactly 24 hours later (around noon today) i have an all-in-one machine that works...i ended up taking back the one i bought and exchanging it for the same type that i previously had. one good thing came out of all of this other than i now have a new machine...yesterday, i paid $95.74 and today i was refunded $107.00. I LOVE YOU OFFICE MAX!!!!!!
